Z97-G43 Gaming black screen

Hello,
I just got my new motherboard today, along with all my other hardware. epic!
.. at first - all was good until i pluged my pc in, started up, and saw that i had no internet..
A google search on my laptop revealed that it was a Bios update that was needed, so i downloaded the files, and put it on my usb harddrive.
In Bios it found the update just fine, and it sayd all was okay. After the reboot, the screen is now black, and there i no light in the HDD led or Power LED.
Is there even anything i can do? or will i have to send it to RMA like after 5min of usage? :-(
I used the latest version of Bios

list full and detailed system specifications, see >>Posting Guide<<

  • R9 270x Gaming 2G with B84-G43 Gaming Black Screen running win 8.1

    Hi,
    My system was win 7, upgrade to win 8.1 clean install with AMD Catalyst™ 14.4 for a day then problem occur the same way which many are having "Black Screen" even restart in normal mode but not to Safe Mode.
    so i decide to downgrade the system to win 7 clean install, with no display driver install/update "Microsoft Standard VGA Graphic Adapter" in high resolution the system work fine but not with MSI Graphics Driver 13.101, "Black Screen' occur during driver installation detecting VGA card.
    which i believe got to be some bios malfunction during the upgrading OS & Driver. by following here i attach the link below as technical details for assistance in advance for this troubleshooting.
    here is the picture for the S/N

    *(Sorry, you are not allowed to post external links.)
    Thanks.

    even i tried it on downgrade and upgrade motherboard bios for both OS by getting a clean/clear default setting.
    by using these method, clean OS installation with each of these driver "AMD Catalyst™ 14.4, MSI Graphics Driver 13.101, and the older link by previous post" and on-board vga as main display output;
    OS win7 as a result the MSI Graphics driver both version successfully install, process for reboot after the installation of the driver and log into desktop "Black Screen" meanwhile the AMD Catalyst™ 14.4 "Black Screen" during the installation of detecting VGA card.
    on the other side of;
    OS win8.1 as a result three of these three driver "Screen Freeze" during the installation driver process of detecting VGA card even mouse pointer can't move. picture as link below capture using smartphone;

  • 970 GAMING black screen when boot on cold start, have to clear CMOS everytime

    I have 970 GAMING w/ FX8320, it shows black screen when boot on cold start, have to clear CMOS everytime to enter default.
    I have updated it to the up to date M11 bios. Once it boot up, it functions OK no matter whether you reboot or reset it. But after turned off a few hours (cooled down), it shows on black screen again on boot, all LED lights up OK, but I can hear the fan like keep rebooting, any idea?
    PSU seasonic 430W, GPU HD7750.

    In what DIMM slots did you insert your memory?  I just got and at this moment building a new computer with a 970. 
    A horrible experience I had with my last build reminded me of it.  My board was am MSI A88XM-E45.  DIMM1 is blue, DIMM2 is black, DIMM3 is blue, & DIMM4 is black.  When using two sticks of RAM, it says to install one on DIMM1 & the other in DIMM3 (Makes sense... After all, it's color colored that way).
    Well it would not boot.  I reseated every component and for HOURS tried almost everything.  Finally I decided to place my two sticks of RAM in the first two DIMMS and viola!
    I think I will begin this build the same way.

  • N770 TF 2GD5/OC Gaming black screen blinking problem

    Hello there,
    i upgraded my PC 4 days ago with a MSI N770 TF 2GD5/OC Gaming graphic card. I installed the newest graphic drivers. Clean install and without nVidia Experience. My problem is black screen blinking when i am playing or watching. Screen turns to black for 1-5 seconds like monitor lost its signal. It happening when i click to fullscreen button. No matter if its in youtube or windows. It happening every time. It does the same when i am playing. Big lag and then black screen blinking for 10 sec. Sometimes more sometimes less than 10 sec. I used Google and i am not the only one, who have this problem. Some people says, that GPU BIOS flash helped but in MSI website is only one BIOS and i dont know if its newer than mine or not. S/N of my card is 602-V282-380B1404100829 (if it helps) and my current bios is here h t t p ://leteckaposta.cz/186979270 (just click on the GK104.rom in the middle).  I think i tried almost everything. Registry clean, anti malware and spyware, drivers re-install, turn W Aero Off, UAC off and other worthless tips how to fix this issue. I monitored my PC with many temperature software and i am 100% sure, that overheating isnt the problem. So could you please check if the MSI Bios is newer than mine or tell me what to do to fix this irritating problem?
    Thank you very much
    PS: I am not a native speaker and english is my 3rd language tbh, so please excuse any grammar mistakes

    you are using latest vbios version, test the card in another PC

  • Msi 290x gaming - black screen crash

    Hi
    Recently i bought MSi 290x gaming . After a day i has got first black screen freeze. Only way to turn on computer was unplug it and connect again after 10-20 sec. I try to use different drivers but nothing helped. Sometimes pc worked fine for 2-4 days and them 3-5 crashes in hour. It never happened in a game . always in windows . I tried different psu and nothing change .
    I tried msi afterburner , set voltage to constant. change gpu memory clock ..... but nothing changed :(
    I make decision to RMA card to the shop but they just send me msg that everything was fine :( any ide what i should do ?

  • 270X Gaming - Black screen after driver install

    I just recently purchased an MSI R9 270X Twin Frozr Gaming.
    I physically installed the board and booted my PC. Windows started fine, albeit in VGA mode. I then proceeded to install the latest AMD drivers for the card (13.11 Beta). I made it through installation and then rebooted. When I rebooted, I got a blank, black screen after the "Starting Windows" screen. I was unable to boot windows, so I restored to last known configuration and tried again with different drivers (13.9) with the same result.
    Does anyone know why windows hangs when it loads the display driver? Any help would be much appreciated.
    Thanks

    Hi everyone. I just wanted to give you an update. It seems I have resolved the problem.
    After attempting other fixes (fresh Windows install, MB BIOS update, etc), flashing the BIOS of the video card fixed the problem. I used the BIOS version
    015.040.000.000.002887. I believe the BIOS the card shipped with is 015.039.000.000.002887. Anyway, there are no problems now. I was able to install Catalyst 13.11 Beta 9.5 with no problems and no black screens.
    I got the BIOS and ATIWinflash from TechPowerUp. I'd post links, but I am too new to the board.
    Thanks guys.

  • R9 290 gaming - black screen when trying to update driver

    Hello, I recently built a haswell pc and when I received my msi r9 290 card, when I uninstalled the driver that came on the cd using the offiicial uninstaller, and then I cleaned the remains with driver fusion, my pc posted but the screen was black. I could not see the login screen for windows. I got round it by booting in safe mode which allowed me to go to the desktop and install using device manager, rebooting and then fully installing latest driver. This has not happened to any other gpu I have owned. Is this because it's a new card?

    its windows/drivers mess can occur especially when changing to different cards

    All you're giving now is just a BIOS version which is not bios itself.
    On the "BIOS Version" (in line with this) can you see little icon?
    Have a look here at Step 1: http://www.techpowerup.com/forums/threads/guide-for-flashing-bios-of-nvidia-gpu.119955/
    Then use some file sharing website to upload it there and give us the link here.

  • R9 280x TF GAMING: Sporadic black screen on boot and system resume

    Link to my full system specs
    ASRock Z97M OC Formula (running latest BIOS version)
    Acer B296CL Monitor over DisplayPort
    MSI R9 280x 3GB TF GAMING, vBIOS 015.042.000.000.003435, S/N 602-V277-250B1406048461
    AMD Catalyst Omega Driver: 14.501.1003.0 WHQL (latest non-beta driver)
    When booting my computer in UEFI mode, occasionally, my monitor does not wake from sleep and the screen remains black until Windows takes over and the login screen displays. This seems to usually occur after the computer has been powered off for more than 10 minutes. Sometimes this never happens, the screen remains black the whole time, and I need to hard reset. Sometimes it boots fine.
    This black screen / no signal issue also occurs far more frequently when attempting to resume from sleep. I strike a key on the keyboard or hit the power button while the computer is in sleep mode, the computer wakes up, but the monitor never turns on. This forces me to either hard shutdown or reset in order to restore graphics.
    In addition, I have a Razer keyboard that shuts off its backlight when the display is turned off, and it remains off when this problem occurs. This likely means that there is a problem with the card, drivers, or something else, rather than cabling. I might just RMA if we don't get anywhere here.
    Perhaps a good first step would be ensuring that my card is flashed with the latest vBIOS. Can you send a link to that?
    I'm also wondering if ULPS might be interfering, even though I am not in a CrossFireX setup.
    Other than this MAJOR issue, the card works fine when playing 3D games. Though, I had major issues with video artifacts when playing 2D games or doing anything else simple (web browsing, moving windows) because of the absolutely terrible decision to underclock the past couple generations of AMD cards so much that the GPU can't function. I solved this by modifying an OverDrive profile to raise the idle clock to 850 MHz, but not overclocking at all.
    Thank you.
    Meta discussion for the mods (feel free to PM me if you would like to discuss this further, in order to keep the discussion here on topic): sorry for not immediately opening up another forum topic when commenting on this issue. Every single other community that I've been a part of prefers to keep users with the same problem on the same thread. In my experience, mods yell at people for opening up duplicate bug reports and duplicate issues far more than they ask people to fragment information across multiple threads, therefore making it difficult to consolidate information.

    It could be a mobo issue, but all of the quirks seem to point to the card.
    I do not recall if I tested the card in another PC, but I no longer have a second desktop to test with.
    I do think I tested an NVIDIA card on a separate Windows install with this build though. No issues there if my memory serves correctly. I've been troubleshooting this issue for months, and I'm becoming tired of this stubborn problem, so the attempts at problem-solving are becoming blurred.
    vBIOS is attached.

  • Black screen at boot MSI Z77A-G43 with HD7850

    Hi,
    I've tried everything You suggested in this topic. I've upgrade and downgrade bios (official 2.3, 2.4, 2.8, 2,9 / beta 256, 281,296) few times but still is black screen at boot. Now i'm on the newest beta bios 296 and still same issue on Sapphire HD 7850 with my Z77a-G43 board. I know for sure that sapphire working well because I've checked on other mobo with even worst PSU (400W instead 550W Volcano). Before hd 7850 I had gtx460 and swith those few times and always gtx460 works fine, so I don't understand anything right now.
    Tried different slots, also clear cmos.

    Do you see the same problem on bios 2.90?
    The Z77A-G43 seems the have difficulties accepting HD7xxx AMD VGA cards lately.
    It seems that the problem is gone. I thought of it being an ATI driver issue ~ but not even the latest didn't fix it. But since I flashed to BIOS 2.9 I haven't encountered the problem anymore. So I believe something is fixed between 2.3 to 2.9.
    However my problem was a bit different that the OP has.
    Oh, and I said this on other thread so I say it here too: MSI and Asus 7xxx cards haven't faced the kind of issues Sapphires are having. I'm so glad to my choice... as I almost picked Sapphire but then read comments on Newegg which weren't in favor for Sapphire.

  • MSI H77MA-G43 - Windows XP, black screen with A3 code

    Hi,
    I've just bought mb MSI H77MA-G43 and samsung SSD830 series.
    I have Windows XP.
    I had to have set Sata mode to IDE beforee installing XP because Windows didn't see ssd.
    Now it's ok but PC starts slowly. When I press power on button there is a black screen with A3 code and it takes some times(about 1-2 minutes) and next the Windows start normally.
    What should I do to fix this issue?
    Thanks for replies.

    Quote from: Jack on 22-April-12, 20:22:25
    If you want to install XP in AHCI mode you need to integrate the Intel AHCI drivers into an XP installation disk (with NLITE or XP ISO Driver) or load the drivers from a floppy disk during setup (Windows XP Setup only supports floppy drives/disks for that task, unfortunately).
    I know that, I integrated drivers: "Intel Rapid Storage Technology Floppy Driver for 7x series" from that link http://www.msi.com/product/mb/H77MA-G43.html#/?div=Driver&os=XP%2032 but it didn't help. SSD was still undetected, so I change SATA mode to IDE to install XP.

  • Satellite P750 - black screen, freezing, crashes while gaming

    Hi, I've had my P750 not for long and i am getting a few issues with games.
    Most of the newest games like NFS RUN, BF3 or FEAR 3,show a black screen in game, freeze and then crash will i play the game (2-10 minutes).
    Other games like BLACK OPS, ASSASINS CREED REVELATIONS and SAINTS ROW THE THIRD, freeze and i have to press ctrl + alt + del. to continue the game again.......im really dissapointed by Toshiba, because although i was told that this laptop was suitable for gaming, instead i only get crashes!
    I havent overclocked it, the NVIDIA drivers are the latest (285.62) same as DirectX
    Ive seen similar posts on this forum, but no serious solutions. Please help!!

    On Toshiba European driver page you can find the nVida driver v 267.44
    Did you test this driver?
    I found also some modified drivers on laptopvideo2go.com page but the usage of such drivers is your own risk and not sure if they would work properly.
